At RTSWS, we’re proud to feature reflections from Executive Sponsors who are helping expand access to careers in finance by investing in students and serving as mentors.
Courtney Dean, Vice President of Investor Relations at Canyon Partners, shared the following about her experience supporting RTSWS programming in Dallas:
“For the Canyon Partners team, sponsoring the Rock the Street, Wall Street program in Dallas over the past several years has been a deeply meaningful experience, underscoring our strong commitment to education and our culture as a collaborative, ‘learning’ organization. RTSWS also advances the firm’s mission to raise awareness of careers in finance, broaden the talent pipeline, and create more opportunity throughout the investment industry.
On a personal level, engaging closely with these young women and their teachers and watching our second cohort of students graduate this year young women we’ve been mentoring since the 10th grade, has been incredibly rewarding for me. RTSWS continues to inspire us, and the next generation of talent in finance. Canyon is proud to play a role in that transformation.”
We thank Courtney and the Canyon Partners team for their continued support and for helping our students see what’s possible in finance.
